iPad or iPod???

The iPad to me reminds me of a device called the iPod where a simple need is fulfilled. I remember using an mp3 player and thinking only if this thing could show videos for music. To me that is exactly what they have begun to target here a more efficient iPod directed towards the consumers needs. Many people tend to only surf the web or check emails and just want to watch videos or listen to music, which is exactly the specialty of this device. So if you are looking for a laptop than this is not the device for you! Touch technology like this is revolutionary and deserve to be embraced for pushing the limits of what we now consider to be cutting edge. When I think about how the laser disc became so popular I begin to think about the devices which followed like the CD player built into some cars. The iPad is simply fulfilling consumer needs based on the environment it is presented with, for instance, even now in the work place companies are finding many versatile uses for the iPad. From instructing employees to presenting a mobile presentation for diagrams or blueprints the iPad is more useful when targeted for a specific function or task.
